The geological–petrographic, petrogeochemical, geochronological, and isotopic–geochemical data obtained during recent decades in Kuznetskii Alatau and Gornaya Shoria on igneous rocks confined to Early Caledonian structures of the western Altai–Sayan mobile belt, as well as the analysis of stratigraphic materials, show that these regions are characterized by an intricate tectonic structure and development of igneous rocks ranging in age from the Late Precambrian to Early Mesozoic (Fig. 1) [1, 2]. Intrusive rocks of these regions have been studied in detail for over 70 years beginning with classical works by N.A. Eliseev, V.A. Kuznetsov, G.V. Pinus, A.F. Belousov, and other prominent geologists. Nevertheless, many problems of the geological structure and age of igneous rocks remain debatable thus far. Recently, it has been established that Late Riphean– Early Vendian(?) and Late Vendian–Early Cambrian ophiolitic associations, which extend as belts along the Kuznetskii Alatau deep fault, are the oldest igneous rocks in Kuznetskii Alatau and Gornaya Shoria (Fig. 1). The Late Riphean–Early Vendian(?) association was discovered and thoroughly described in the Tom and Tashelga blocks of Gornaya Shoria (Konzhin and Tersin complexes). This association is represented by rare isolated outcrops of tectonic sheets composed of metamorphosed ultramafics, metabasalts, amphibolites, gabbro, siliciliths, and marbles. Metabasalts of the Konzhin Complex are dated by the Sm–Nd isochron

method (bulk rock, amphibole, and plagioclase) back to 694 ± 43 Ma [1]. The Late Vendian–Early Cambrian association is largely composed of basaltoids (Ust’Anzas and Koltas volcanic complexes) and is closely associated with mafic–ultramafic sheets [3–7]. Based on the U–Pb zircon dating of plagiorhyolites and subvolcanic plagiogranites of the Koltas complex, the age of this association is estimated at 544 ± 8 Ma [1]. The Cambrian–Ordovician stage in Kuznetsk Alatau and Gornaya Shoria is marked by the formation of most intrusive rocks. It comprises four peaks of magmatic activity (530 ± 5, 495 ± 5, 475 ± 5, and 450 ± 5 Ma) [9], each characterized by the formation of granitoid and gabbro– granite associations making up large polychronous plutons (Fig. 1). The plutons are largely composed of granitoid associations of different petrochemical (tholeiitic, calc-alkaline, subalkaline, and alkaline) types with anomalously high positive values of the Nd isotope: εNd(T) = +2.5…+8.9 (TNd(DM-2st) = 0.9–0.6 Ga). These rocks formed in different geodynamic settings (island arc, accretionary–collisional, and collisional) [1, 8–10]. This paper presents new data indicating that, in addition to the Cambrian–Ordovician granitoid associations, an older (Late Riphean) granitoid association is developed in the region. In terms of the isotopic– geochemical parameters, the Late Riphean association significantly differs from the Cambrian–Ordovician variety and implies the presence of fragments of old continental blocks in Early Caledonian structures of the western segment of the Altai–Sayan mobile belt. This granitoid association is defined in the Kundusuyul polychronous pluton located in the Kiya segment of the Martaiga Uplift in Kuznetskii Alatau (Fig. 1). Lithological description of this pluton is given below. The elongated Kundusuyul pluton is confined to the Kundat fault system and extends in the meridional direction parallel to the strike of its host Middle–Upper Riphean rocks: limestones, marbles, carbonaceous–

clayey–siliceous schists, quartzites, dolomites, and basic and intermediate volcanics [11]. The pluton comprises three igneous complexes (from older to younger): the Moskovka peridotite–pyroxenite–gabbro and Kundusuyul gabbro–diorite–dolerite complexes of the ophiolitic association and the plagiogranite complex. Previously, it was assumed that these complexes belong to a single ophiolitic association correlative - 11 ) ophiolitic association with the Middle Tersin (V2– C [2–6]. The data discussed below indicate, however, that judging from their composition, age, and isotopic– geochemical characteristics, plagiogranites cannot be affiliated with this ophiolitic association and they formed in different geological settings. The rocks of the plagiogranite association in the Kundusuyul pluton form the Gremyach’e and other small massifs (Fig. 1, inset) located along the right and left banks of the Kiya River. The rock massifs constitute approximately 25–30% of the pluton area. They intrude into the host Middle–Upper Riphean rocks and Kundusuyul igneous gabbro–dolerite complex [11]. The plagiogranite association is represented by plagiogranites and tonalites. Its petrochemical and mineralogical compositions, age, and isotopic–geochemical characteristics are exemplified by the Gremyach’e Massif. The massif, approximately 5 km2 in size and located in the central part of the Kundusuyul pluton, is characterized by irregular configuration and extends in the near-latitudinal direction (Fig. 1, inset). It is largely composed of plagiogranites and leucoplagiogranites (90% of the distribution area) developed in the central part of the massif and, to a lesser extent, of tonalites confined to its peripheral parts. The plagiogranites are medium-grained, mostly cataclastic and foliated rocks. They are characterized by a cataclastic texture with elements of blastomylonitic or granuloblastic and gneissic structures. The major minerals are quartz (30–35%), albite (55–60%), orthoclase (5%), biotite, and amphibole (1–3%). Accessory minerals are represented by apatite, zircon, sphene, magnetite, and pyrite. In terms of their petrochemical composition, plagiogranites belong to the sodic calc-alkaline series (Table 1). In the Ab– An–Or diagram, they fall into the field of tonalite– trondhjemite rocks. Unlike plagiogranites of the tholeiitic series that are constituents of ophiolitic complexes, they are characterized by higher contents of K2O (0.85– 2.6 wt %); Na2O + K2O (5.7–9.1 wt %); Al2O3 (14.3– 15.7 wt %); Rb (18–53 ppm); Sr (300–367 ppm); Th (2.9–4.4 ppm); Hf (1.9–3.2 ppm); Zr (51–122 ppm); and, particularly, Ba (up to 1230 ppm). The curves illustrating the REE distribution spectra indicate a sharp prevalence of LREEs over HREEs (total REE content 53–60 ppm, (La/Yb)N = 16.9–21.4) and the absence of a Eu anomaly or an insignificant value for it in rare cases (Eu/Eu*N = 0.92–1.2) (Fig 2). Multielement spectra of plagiogranites show distinct negative Nb and Ti anomalies, which are typical of rocks of the tonalite– trondhjemite–granodiorite complexes.

tents of Yb (0.4–0.6 ppm), Al2O3 (14.2–15.4 wt %), Eu and Sr, as well as in the La/Yb and Sr/Y values, the rocks of this association are similar to those from the high-alumina tonalite–trondhjemite complexes, which are presumably formed at P > 10–12 kbar in equilibrium with the garnet-bearing restite, i.e., at depths exceeding 35 km. The formation of such melts at the corresponding depth can result either from the melting of an oceanic plate, which subducted into a zone with an elevated geothermal gradient, or from the melting of metabasite (or plagiogneiss) substrates at the base of the thickened crust during collision. In order to determine the age of plagiogranites, the zircon monofraction sampled from the central part of the Gremyach’e Massif (sample RK-10-00) was studied. Zircons from this sample are represented by yellow euhedral, transparent to semitransparent, long prismatic (Kelong = 3.0–5.0) crystals. Their study by the optical and cathodoluminescence methods revealed finely zoned patterns and lack of relicts of “old” nuclei (Fig. 3). The morphological features of zircons indicate their magmatic origin. The SHRIMP-II U–Pb analysis of single zircon grains was carried out at the Center of Isotopic Studies of the Karpinskii All-Russia Research Institute of Geology (St. Petersburg) (Table 2). The age of zircon crystallization is estimated at 875.9 ± 6.2 Ma (Fig. 4). Taking into consideration the magmatic origin of zircons, this date can be considered as the crystallization age of the Gremyach’e plagiogranite. It should be noted that this is the first date obtained for Kuznetskii Alatau. It indicates that Early Paleozoic plagiogranites, which are widespread in this region, also host their Late Riphean varieties [9, 13].

The Nd isotope study of plagiogranites from the Gremyach’e Massif (sample RK-10-00) revealed that they are characterized by a negative εNd(T) value (–7.8) at 147Sm/144Nd = 0.101403 and their model age corresponds to the Early Proterozoic (TNd(DM-2st) = 2.2 Ga). Granitoids with such isotopic parameters have been noted in Kuznetskii Alatau for the first time. With account for geochemical and isotopic data, we can postulate that high-alumina plagiogranites of the Gremyach’e Massif formed at the base of the thickened crust from the source with a long crustal history. Plagiogranites and tonalites from the Sumsunur Complex in the eastern Sayan region can serve as their analogue in adjacent regions. The rocks of the Sumsunur Complex are approximately 800 Ma old and are characterized by the following parameters: εNd(T) = –13.1 and TNd(DM-2st) = 2.57 Ga [14]. Their formation could be related to melting of Archean tonalite–gneisses of the Gargan block (2.66 Ga [15]). Rocks of this block and relevant plagiogranites of the Sumsunur Complex are well exposed. However, no outcrops of Upper Archean or Lower Proterozoic rocks have been established so far at the present-day erosional surface of Kuznetskii Alatau, because they are likely overlain (or overthrusted) by younger strata. The only present-day evidence for development of Lower Precambrian crystalline rocks in structures of Kuznetskii Alatau are the Nd isotope data obtained for Late Riphean plagiogranites of the Gremyach’e Massif. Thus, in terms of the isotopic characteristics that reflect the source, the rocks of the massif are sharply different from Early Paleozoic igneous rocks in Early Caledonian structures of the western Altai–Sayan mobile belt. As was mentioned, the latter are characterized by positive εNd(T) values (from +2.5 to +8.9) and Nd model ages ranging from 0.6 to 0.9 Ga, suggesting their formation mainly due to the melting of the juvenile Late Riphean crust [1, 8, 10]. Thus, the data obtained allow the following inferences. (1) Based on the U–Pb zircon dating of plagiogranites of the Gremyach’e Massif (875.9 ± 6.2 Ma), we have discovered Late Riphean plagiogranites in Kuznetskii Alatau. (2) The petrogeochemical data obtained for plagiogranites of the Gremyach’e Massif indicate that they belong to the high-alumina type formed at P > 10 kbar in equilibrium with the garnet-bearing restite, suggesting their formation independently from ophiolites. (3) The plagiogranites from the Gremyach’e Massif are characterized by a negative εNd(T) value (–7.8) and Early Proterozoic Nd model age value (εNd(DM-2st) = 2.20 Ga). The isotope data point to formation of plagiogranites from a source with a long crustal history and, consequently, suggest the existence of fragments of the Early Precambrian continental crust at the base of the Kuznetskii Alatau collisional structure. These data are of regional significance, since previous geochronological and isotopic–geochemical studies in the Tomsk DOKLADY EARTH SCIENCES Vol. 411 No. 8 2006

Note: Accessory zircons were extracted in line with the standard technique using heavy liquids. The SHRIMP-II ionic microprobe analyses of single zircon grains were performed at the Center of Isotopic Studies of the Karpinskii All-Russia Research Institute of Geology (St. Petersburg). Manually picked zircon grains were implanted into epoxide resin together with zircon standards TEMORA and 91500. Subsequently, zircon grains were polished up to their half thickness. Optical (the transmitted and reflected light versions) and cathodoluminescence images reflecting the internal structure and zoned patterns of zircons were used to select areas (points) for dating grains at the surface of the polished section. The cathodoluminescence images were obtained on a scanning electron microscope (analytical conditions: working distance 25–28 mm, accelerating voltage 20 kV, and beam current on the Faraday cup 4–6 nA). U–Pb ratios were measured with the SHRIMP-II ion microprobe in line with the standard technique (analytical conditions: intensity of the primary beam of molecular negatively charged oxygen ions 4 nA, crater diameter 18 µm). The obtained data were processed using the SQUID software. The U–Pb ratios were normalized to the value of 0.0668 attributed to the zircon standard TEMORA. Errors of single analyses (ratios and ages) are given at the 1σ level; errors of calculated concordant ages and intercepts with the concordia, at the 2σ level.
